a) CIC is a single public authority.
b) There can be no "jurisdictions" for PIOs within a public authority.
c) That each and every PIO of a P/A is supposed to have access to all
a P/As records over a computer network anywhere in India and be able
to
provide information to RTI applicants.
d) That RTI-dushman Mr. Pankaj Shreyaskar should be sent back to

[RTI INDIA] Re: SOCIAL AUDIT LOCAL TEAM -(SALT)
Dear friends,
Mumbai People talk about the pot holes and only complain that repairs of roads/pavement are not good. I have been doing the social audit ever since the day these guidelines have been published. I have come to the conclusion that if the road and pavement trench works are done as per the guidelines, the same will be both good in quality and sustainable too. It will also be value for the money spent.
If people really use properly the RTI and Section 4 inspection we all can contribute to true spirit and intent of the RTI Act and its preamble and my experience shows that even administration participates as we will be forcing the system to work and if system is forced to work then even the non-cooperative or corrupt person has to follow and it will be very difficult for him/her to take recourse to malpractices.
Please note this does not pertain to tender works but work given at ward level and some at central level. A ward issues, on an average, about 600 to 1000 work orders per year.
I have got the whole work redone many times in F/South, F/North wards and G/South Wards, which I could coordinate.
I generally don't put manuals on board but thought I should circulate this to bring about awareness and also provoke action as the road/pavement situation is deteriorating rapidly now. Please spend some time to read fully the Guideline and after reading don't use this knowledge just for making 'indiscriminate and impractical' RTI applications, but rather use the guidelines for effective monitoring of the work.
If you or any person whom you know, wishes to participate in working on the Implementation of these Guidelines in their area/ward, I can assist in forming of a Citizens Area Social Audit Local Team (SALT) and also guide the team onwards. Mahiti Adhikar Manch has started forming such groups in Mumbai and if you are interested please e-mail me at mahitiadhikarmanch@gmail.com. Please note this group formation is for Mumbai only.
For your information, recently some colleagues joined me in conducting the inspection of records maintained for trench repairs. This has convinced me of this urgent need which prompted this mail and sharing.

Re: [HumJanenge] Interesting exchange of correspondence between SG and CIC
Thanks for placing these 2 letters before us.
1) SG comes across (at least to me) in his letter as a hysterical old
woman protesting that her modesty has been compromised. SM on the
other hand comes across as PROMPT, to the point, factual and most
importantly as MATURE.
2) We can see that CIC's official letterhead as his hotmail email ID -
so the other reply (ex-MP) may be deemed to be official.
3) Please consider if asking rhetorical questions is useful. Answers
may be given which would embarrass you / SG. For instance there are
many complaints by me (acting as watchdog over CIC) concerning SG
which were invariably forwarded to SG and he refrained from repeating
his corrupt actions thereafter.

[HumJanenge] Re: REMINDER Re: Clarification in case of Mr. Nitish Bharadwaj (ex-MP)
I hope that you will at least freely admit the following
1) That your original message to this group concerning Nitish Bhardwaj
(ex-MP) was posted/circulated to this group - as it is.
2) That as Moderator of this group, I forwarded the substance of your
grievance very promptly to Mr. Mishra. Before doing so, I had taken
the precaution of verifying the details you provided and also a
PROBABLE reason for his action (which you seem to have missed out).
3) That I followed it up, and managed to get a reply from Mr. Mishra
addressing the "meat" of the problem.
4) That throughout my dialogue with Mr. Mishra I was extremely
polite / respectful and civilised.
5) I think we can safely assume that such incidents may not again come
to light IN THE NEAR FUTURE in CIC(SMS)'s registry.
6) As all my actions were done openly and cc'ed to this group, there
is no reason why other citizens / members could not have done the
same. I can truthfully say that I have got no special favours from
CIC(SM) - and in fact I have not spoken to him in last 2 years.
In conclusion I maintain that if every citizen is alert and exercises
his democratic rights properly (ie. by using right channels in a
decent manner) the system can and will respond.
When the system does not respond (and I will post examples of how I
tackle this) to decent approach then the pressure must be "ratcheted"
up. (PS: For instance I have slapped at least 2 senior public servants
publicly - without any comebacks. I have got a prominent Minister to
resign, I have got MLAs who crossed paths with me replaced and so on),
so if you still think I am stupid and naive - more power to your
elbow.

Dear Mr Roy,
I am sorry for the delayed reply. It was due to the fact
that I was trying to find out how this appeal got ahead of some
others. The Registry sends hearing notice largely on a first come
first served basis except for the following occasional adjustments:
a) on account of the availability of
Video-conferencing facility, and b) hearing of
multiple cases of the same appellant or the same public authority
In the case of Nitish Bhardwaj, however, his case file got
mixed up in the bundle of cases relating to the Cabinet Secretariat
and the hearing notice was sent by the DEO in-charge on the assumption
that it was in the right serial order. It was wrongly fixed and was
taken up ahead of some others. The Registry and the DEO have been
pulled up for this lapse and warned not to make such a mistake in
future. Wherever I decide to take up a case on priority on the
accepted grounds, I give written instruction in the case file. In this
case, I had given no such instruction. Thus, it was a clerical error,
at the most.
The insinuation that the case was taken up presumably
because the wife of the appellant is a Madhya Pradesh Cadre IAS
officer is both unkind and mischievous. I hope this clarifies the
position.
I am grateful to you for bringing this to my notice and
look forward to you for your continued watch over our working in the
CIC. Regards. Satyananda Mishra

Please read the CPIO's reply carefully.
They have not said that your 2 letters were not received in the CIC.
What the PIO of IC(BS)'s Registry says is the file is not with him
(presumably because the file has not been transferred to them from
CIC(SM)'s registry.
Th FA should stress that CIC is a single public authority and that the
nodal PIO should be penalised for not locating the information in
CIC(SM)'s registry. It also points to some systemic error in the CIC's
Centralised dak and registry systems.

[HumJanenge] RTI Regeneration group -- Recent Delhi High Court Orders
I hope you have read the DHC order carefully before riding off like
Don Quixote to tilt at windmills in the SC.
We all know that Mr. Shailesh Gandhi has crores and crores of rupees
and is agitating other people to fight his battles for him to get
those remarks against him expunged.
Considering the accurate poking he has got from Justice Sanghi, I do
hope that you also don't fall prey to Mr.Gandhi's money power or
accept the offer of free legal services / advocates he will arrange
for you in SC, as it is RTI activists are a very discredited lot
nowadays.
I can also say that it was only a single judge order - which ought to
be challenged in LPA in DHC if at all. As I repeatedly say, Mr
Shailesh Gandhi is one of the ring leaders of that bunch of h****is
known as NCPRI who are out to get RTI movement scuttled at the behest
of their foreign paymasters. I again beseech you not to fall into
their trap BY GETTING THIS JUDGMENT FINALLY CONFIRMED IN SC.
With best wishes

To: sroy.mb@gmail.com
Dear Mr Roy,
I am sorry for the delayed reply. It was due to the fact
that I was trying to find out how this appeal got ahead of some
others. The Registry sends hearing notice largely on a first come
first served basis except for the following occasional adjustments:
a) on account of the availability of
Video-conferencing facility, and b) hearing of
multiple cases of the same appellant or the same public authority
In the case of Nitish Bhardwaj, however, his case file got
mixed up in the bundle of cases relating to the Cabinet Secretariat
and the hearing notice was sent by the DEO in-charge on the assumption
that it was in the right serial order. It was wrongly fixed and was
taken up ahead of some others. The Registry and the DEO have been
pulled up for this lapse and warned not to make such a mistake in
future. Wherever I decide to take up a case on priority on the
accepted grounds, I give written instruction in the case file. In this
case, I had given no such instruction. Thus, it was a clerical error,
at the most.
The insinuation that the case was taken up presumably
because the wife of the appellant is a Madhya Pradesh Cadre IAS
officer is both unkind and mischievous. I hope this clarifies the
position.
I am grateful to you for bringing this to my notice and
look forward to you for your continued watch over our working in the
CIC. Regards. Satyananda Mishra

Respected Sir
I refer to my appended request for clarification concerning the
purported "out-of-turn" hearing which was given to Mr. Nitish
Bharadwaj (ex-MP) in a recent appeal decided by you in Case
CIC/SM/A/2012/000231 on 20.July.2012.
As the sequence in which cases are taken up for disposal in the
Commission has considerable public interest especially considering
the very long pendency in high profile Public Authorities you have
retained to yourself, I again request you to kindly clarify if any
"out of turn" favour was indeed given to the appellant in that matter
and the reasons, if any.
yours faithfully

[HumJanenge] GLORIFYING SUGGESTIONS
Govt. should also bring a bill to legalize corruption.
Madhu Koda, A. Raja, Suresh Kalmadi, Kani Mozi, Daya Nidhi and Kalanighi Maran and all others facing charges of corruption should be given medals after the confirmed of charges. The medal should be according to the size of corruption i.e. the person who is found to siphon off the biggest money from he govt. coffer should be given biggest award. Few suggested names, Padam Vibhushan in corruption and so on.
If some funds are required to meet the cost, corruption tax may be imposed on the citizens.
Another suggested, court cannot declare decision on the corruption charges, if found true, decision will have to be reserved during the life time of the corrupt. After that, no recovery can be effected from the legal heirs of the corrupt.

[HumJanenge] Re: FUNCTIONING OF ORISSA INFORMATION COMMISSION UNDER HIGH COURT SCANNER
I have quickly gone through the WP. Was this the Final version you
filed ?
Also I could not locate where you have set out section 26 of the RTI
Act which is the pivot point of your grievance. Nor had you annexed a
copy of RTI Act in the alternative.
I feel that given time this WP could have been better focused /
drafted to achieve very specific results instead of being drafted in
the form of a PIL by RTI activist. So here's wishing you best of luck.

Regards

FUNCTIONING OF ORISSA INFORMATION COMMISSION UNDER HIGH COURT SCANNER
On a Public Interest Writ Petition W. P. (C) No.10848/2012
moved by Sri Pradip Pradhan, leading RTI activist and Convener of Odisha Soochana Adhikar Abhijan, on 18.7.12, the Orissa High Court has been pleased to issue notices of show-cause to the Chief Secretary, Secretaries of I & PR Deptt., Planning & Coordination Deptt., Finance Deptt., Information Commission through its Secretary, Chief Information Commissioner, Information Commissioner Mr. Jagadanand, formerly Chief Information Commissioner Mr. D. N. Padhi and formerly Information Commissioner Prof. Radha Mohan.
The Division Bench comprising Hon'ble the Chief Justice Mr. V. Gopala Gowda and Hon'ble Mr. Justice S. K. Mishra was moved by the Petitioner through his counsel Mr. Subha Bikash Panda to come down heavily on the very manner of functioning of the Orissa Information Commission, a quasi-judicial autonomous authority as well as the State Executives contrary to the mandates of Section-26 of the RTI, 2005. The Petitioner in his writ petition inter alia has alleged that the State Govt. has completely abdicated its power and function in favour of the Commission and the Commission has been indulging itself in activities in the name and style of Information, Education and Communication (IEC), beyond the scope and ambit of the statue. It has further been alleged that such kind of activities carried on by the Commission since its inception till date has resulted in gross misappropriation of public exchequer to the tune of more than rupees five crores over the years, which requires a thorough probe and recovery from the errant Commission and its Commissioners.
The rule issued by the Court has brought in a sigh of relief among the bona fide RTI activists of the State and the public at large and has given a jolt on the face of the Govt. before it goes for appointment of another Information Commissioner sans a transparent procedure in the matter of such appointment.
The petition has been posted for hearing of the parties after a month.

Re: [HumJanenge] Re: Another blunder of Anita Gupta
I must presume that Anita Gupta has faithfully recorded your exact RTI
queries of 21.05.2012 in her Appellate order.
NOW you claim that there are portions (marked in RED COLOUR by you) to
your queries which she has left out from her order.
OTH, if these RED colour portions are figments of YOUR imagination
which you expect a PIO and/or FAA to magically divine from the deeply
fevered recesses of your mind, then even Lord Krisha (aka Mr. Nitish
Bharadwaj ex-MP) cannot help you.
Also, nowhere in her order has she recorded that you are highlighting
case number CIC/SM/A/001791/SG/17637which is in the Moneylife article.
Nowhere is Aakashdeep's case mentioned - did you SPECIFICALLY ask for
it ?
To settle this matter once and for all, we would appreciate that you
mail a copy of your actual RTI request of 21.May.2012 to this group.
